The Taipei Economic and Cultural Mission in Ankara; (Chinese: 駐土耳其代表處; pinyin: Zhù Tǔ'ěrqí Dàibiǎo Chù) (Turkish: Taipei Ekonomik ve Kültür Misyonu) represents the interests of Taiwan in Turkey in the absence of formal diplomatic relations, functioning as a de facto embassy. It was established in 1993.[1]

Turkey had diplomatic relations with Taiwan as the Republic of China until 1971, when it recognised the People's Republic of China.[3]

Its counterpart in Taiwan is the Turkish Trade Office in Taipei.[4]

The Office is headed by a Representative, currently Yaser Tai-hsiang Cheng.[2]
